"I suspect the Blue Water Tribe lives in the sea." Before Xuan could reply, Meng Yuqing continued, "But from what you said, the sea is indeed too far away from us. We should not consider going there unless it's absolutely necessary."
In his understanding, the sea is a very mysterious place, and the sea in this world will only be better than before. As for the tribes in the sea, they are never short of salt. Even if they do not know how to make salt, they can replenish salt by eating things from the sea.
The orcs of the Qingshan tribe are all pure land creatures. They may be very powerful on land, but their strength will be discounted in the sea.
Based on his observations during this period, he found that the orcs in tribes that were not short of salt were generally stronger than those in tribes that were short of salt.
Putting aside the numbers, in terms of the strength of individual orcs, the orcs of the Qingshan tribe are stronger than those of most tribes of a thousand people. Among the entire southern tribe group, their individual combat effectiveness is definitely top-notch.
He had carefully observed the Yellowstone tribe and found that the orcs in their tribe were very strong, no worse than those in the Green Mountain tribe.
The Huangshi tribe relies on yellow light stone to exchange for enough salt every year. Because they are quite famous in the market and Huangshi is special, they exchange salt according to the number of people in the tribe, and are not limited like the Qingshan tribe when they exchange salt.
There are many tribes with larger populations than the Yellowstone Tribe. They are not as famous as the Yellowstone Tribe. Although they can exchange more salt than the Qingshan Tribe, they are still subject to restrictions.
The orcs of those tribes are slightly inferior to those of the Qingshan Tribe, and are about the same as the Shijiao Tribe and the Shuilin Tribe.
He didn't think it was because these tribes couldn't catch enough prey.
Because the tribe can catch enough prey but cannot exchange it for enough salt, they also look very strong, but in fact they are not as strong as the orcs of the Water Forest Tribe and the Stone Horn Tribe.
As for the orcs who couldn't catch enough prey, they were basically like wandering tribes, and their bodies were very thin.
Therefore, Meng Yuqing speculated that it was most likely caused by salt.
When Xuan heard Meng Yuqing speculate that the Blue Water Tribe might live in the sea, he just nodded. Meng Yuqing glanced at him and knew what he must be thinking about.
She reached out and patted his head. "What are you thinking about? We haven't figured out the tribes on land yet, and it will be even more complicated in the sea."
Xuan shrank back when he slapped him, and looked at him with a somewhat aggrieved look.
Meng Yuqing crossed her arms and said, "Damn it, no cuteness allowed!"
Xia was still on the stage showing the things he had exchanged for this time to his tribesmen.
When the meat fruit, strength grass and taming grass are displayed.
The people in the audience went crazy, they were all cheering, saying that with these things, their tribe would definitely not be afraid of winter this year.
Just as everyone was cheering, a sub-beast was trying hard to push through the crowd and squeeze inside. He looked around, as if looking for someone.
"Where is Yuqing? Can someone show me the direction?" Ronglin asked the people around him while squeezing in.
"He and Xuan are in the front. Go ahead and ask them." An orc heard him and pointed him in the direction.
When the other people around saw Rong Lin, they all consciously made way for him, allowing him to pass smoothly to find Meng Yuqing.
They all knew that Ronglin, Hefeng and Qiye were responsible for helping Meng Yuqing grow plants for winter food, and some time ago, they also brought a number of orcs to enclose a large piece of land, saying that they would start planting again when Meng Yuqing came back.
With everyone's cooperation, Ronglin quickly found Meng Yuqing and immediately called out Meng Yuqing's name.
"Ronglin!" Meng Yuqing heard his voice and waved at him.
"Yuqing, after you'd been gone for about half a month, we noticed the potatoes had grown. Their leaves had turned yellow. We dug one out and saw it was incredibly large."
He excitedly told Meng Yuqing about the changes that had taken place during this period. "We told Yang right away, and he sent over ten orcs to accompany us to select a location. We've already fenced off a large area and are ready to plant the second crop. We've also harvested the potatoes and are storing them in a cool, shady cave. Someone is guarding it."
"Really? Then let's plant them in the next few days and harvest them before winter." Meng Yuqing looked at the banyan forest in surprise.
"Yes, I calculated the time. If we plant them these days, we can harvest them about a month before winter." He said this with a somewhat dejected expression, "The sweet potatoes haven't grown yet. If they don't, we won't have enough time to plant the second batch. We'll also have to save some potatoes for planting next year. I don't know if there will be enough to eat."
"We won't be short of food this winter, even if there are a hundred more of us than before." Xuan suddenly said, "We've got the taming grass, and Yuqing has a way to preserve meat, so we won't starve."
"Xuan is right, you don't have to worry, and we still have radishes. If all else fails, I'll take you to catch the wild animals in the water when the river freezes." Meng Yuqing patted Rong Lin's shoulder.
He knew that Ronglin was very concerned about growing potatoes and sweet potatoes, and had high hopes for them. He hoped to grow enough potatoes and sweet potatoes to ensure that the tribe would not starve in the winter.
Although the Qingshan tribe has escaped the danger of starvation in the winter and no longer needs its elderly members to leave the tribe and sacrifice themselves to save food for everyone, it does not mean that they will not starve.
Every spring, the orcs of the tribe would become thinner than before winter. Sub-beasts were not so bad, as they ate far less than orcs.
The amount of food that fifty orc-humanoids eat in one full meal is enough to feed two hundred sub-beasts for a whole day.
